Journal ArticleDOI
Corrosion behaviour in salt spray and in 3.5% NaCl solution saturated with Mg(OH)2 of as-cast and solution heat-treated binary Mg–X alloys: X = Mn, Sn, Ca, Zn, Al, Zr, Si, Sr
TL;DR: Corrosion of binary Mg-X alloys was characterised by immersion tests in 3.5% NaCl solution saturated with Mg(OH)2, and by salt spray.
Journal ArticleDOI
The in vivo and in vitro corrosion of high-purity magnesium and magnesium alloys WZ21 and AZ91

TL;DR: Corrosion was studied in vitro in Nor's solution (CO 2 -bicarbonate buffered Hank's solution) at 37 C, andin vivo implanted in the lower back muscle of rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of Mg alloy corrosion rates
Andrej Atrens,Zhiming Shi,Syeda U. Mehreen,Sean Johnston,Guang-Ling Song,Xianhua Chen,Fusheng Pan +6 more
TL;DR: A review of the literature confirmed that the intrinsic corrosion rate of high-purity Mg as measured by weight-loss is 0.3mm/y in a concentrated chloride solution as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of the β phase on the corrosion performance of anodised coatings on magnesium-aluminium alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the beta phase in Mg-Al alloys on the corrosion performance of an anodised coating was studied and it was found that the corrosion resistance of the anodized coating was closely associated with the surface porosity of the substrate alloy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress corrosion cracking of rare-earth containing magnesium alloys ZE41, QE22 and Elektron 21 (EV31A) compared with AZ80
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the slow strain rate test (SSRT) method in air, distilled water and 0.5 wt.% NaCl solution to study the SCC susceptibility of rare earth alloy ZE41, QE22 and EV31A.
